I just have had the same problem with my Aculaser C4200.I may have found a way to solve you problem.Just print 10 blank (without anything), and after that i took all toner's, the fuser etc. and put it back again. Printed 10 more blank pages, and printed over 200 pages with lot of tekst and colour (think that 50 pages could do it).After 2 days everything is still ok for me.

Its purely your CATRIDGE problem...so please open up your printer and check for the two small black colored boxes..in that you can easily identify the B/W one....so if its lighter in weight compared to that of coloured one....you need to refill it or buy a new catridge......THIS is the only solution to this problem..

Contact the dealer for the alternate cartridge, you probably have a defective cartridge that should be replaced under warranty. The third party cartridges are generally remanufactured, cartridges that have been used once (or more) before, then refilled. The quality varies widely. See here for a study of third party cartridge quality.
